The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

Poor thing looks bereft and alone.

To show you that she is neither bereft nor alone, I went out and gave her a hug.... And tried to capture it on film, but this is a tough self-portrait to do!

She's getting really pissed now.

Enough of this!

Heh, sorry Rosie, I stepped away for a few minutes just before you asked. Not that I could think of one anyway!

Hope you have a good weekend!

Yeah. My brother actually owns the house. He gives us a (very) modest discount. But his house is directly on one of the canals. They dock their boat right at the house and you can get out on the sound from there. We'd like to get Jr. a kayak so he can take it out from there. The sound is only about 4-5 deep.

Mr. Frodo is going by St. John's Church on the way home. He feels a kindred spirit with Patrick Henry.
